Description

I’m going to talk about putting my kid in daycare and not even feeling guilty about it. I know I’m supposed to feel guilty about this but I don’t and I’m going to tell you why.
In this episode we will talk about:

Daycare was not a bad thing for me. But going to entrepreneur workshops put this image out that you know you have made it when you don’t have put your kids in daycare.
Newborn land was not what I thought it was going to be 
I was unable to help my clients and started feeling captive in my own house
I learned that I needed a sense of accomplishment at the end of the day—I’m not saying that being a stay at home mom cannot be an accomplishment to be proud of. It is hard work!
When I put my son in daycare it helped me set definitive boundaries between work and motherhood
I’m supposed to feel guilty about putting my kid in daycare right? I don’t feel guilty at all. I am helping him with social skills
It still is challenging for me to juggle things
